Chocolate Nests with White Chocolate-Vanilla Candies
Ingredients:
pascha, organic bitter-sweet dark chocolate chips,
spartan, real semi-sweet chocolate baking chips,
oil, olive, salad or cooking
beans, snap, green, raw
Directions:
Bring a small pot of water to a simmer.
Fit a small bowl over the pot, but make sure it doesn't touch the water.
Place bittersweet chocolate in the bowl.
Let sit until chocolate is just melted (don't stir), 3 to 5 minutes.
Remove bowl from heat (but keep simmering pot on stove), and stir until smooth.
Spread dark chocolate in a thin layer on a baking sheet; refrigerate until firm, about 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, clean bowl and place on pot with simmering water.
Add white chocolate, vegetable oil, and vanilla bean paste to bowl; stir mixture occasionally until just melted, about 5 minutes.
Pour into candy molds or minimuffin liners, and chill until firm, about 45 minutes.
Remove dark chocolate from refrigerator; let sit until pliable or at room temperature, 5 to 10 minutes.
Using a metal spatula, scrape chocolate off baking sheet to form curls and strips.
Mound several together on a plate to create a nest, and repeat on a second plate; add more curls to each nest as desired.
(If chocolate starts melting, return it to the refrigerator to solidify.)
Take white chocolate out of refrigerator, and remove candies from molds; arrange them in and around nests.
